A tricky question
Jan. 21st, 2011 10:04 pmTamás Vitray, Hungary's all-time greatest sports reporter, a veteran of several Olympic Games and the person who practically introduced the genre of talk shows to the Hungarian audience, wrote several books. Mostly about the Olympic Games he got to report in from. In one of those books, he ponders over the question, which makes you more lonely: if you can't share your joy over a good thing (because nobody gives a shit) or if you can't find comfort in hard times (because nobody gives a shit).
It's a good question I've been trying to answer for decades. I still cannot decide.
Of course, the nobody gives a shit part is highly subjective, and one ought to count one's blessings. The question is still an intriguing one, I find.
